Alcohol & Evolution with Dr. Edward Slingerland

Alcohol has been an integral part of human society for thousands of years and has not only been part of our social, religious, economic, and political endeavors but is ingrained within our evolution. As such, it holds a special place within human culture and remains the most used psychoactive substance in the world. In this episode of “Mindful Drinking,” host Derek Brown is joined by featured guest, Dr. Edward Slingerland, author of Drunk: How We Sipped, Danced and Stumbled Our Way to Civilization, to explore the complexities of alcohol, culture, and human evolution. Drawing from Dr. Slingerland's experience in religion, evolution, and tracing the history of alcohol, they explore what makes alcohol so important to the human experience, as well as some of the difficulties that come along with alcohol, especially when it's distilled into a more concentrated form. Don’t miss this conversation on alcohol's place in the human experience. ***Your opinion matters! We would love to know what you think about this show and the NASM Podcast Network.
